DUBLIN -- The market for OEM automotive electronics in China is forecast to reach $3.5 billion by 2012, a compound annual growth rate of 14.2%, a new study says.
At that rate, China is the fastest growing region for automotive electronics, says Dublin, Ireland-based Research and Markets.
The average automotive electronic content per light vehicle in China is forecast to increase from $300 in 2003 to $500 in 2012, the firm said.
PC Trading will be responsible for selling Indium's line of solder pastes, wave solder fluxes, wires and preforms.
In a statement, Indium European sales manager Tony Howard called PC Trading a "well respected supplier." The company reportedly has extensive experience supplying consumables, machinery and laser stencils for surface mount assembly in Denmark.
Patent number ZL98107079.5 was issued Sept. 29 for the C3, Foresite said.
The
C3 performs real-time cleanliness analysis, the company said. It
operates using a steaming technique to extract residues from a
specified area and electrically test for conductivity and corrosivity.
Results are returned in minutes, Foresite said.
The process is a means for localized residue assessment and for collecting samples for ion chromatography analysis. The C3 tests specific areas and pinpoints the location of residue
without exposing the entire board to water, which can dilute test results.
Tests can be localized to an area of 0.1 in2, Foresite said.
The C3 has been issued patents in the U.S. and U.K., and has patents pending in Germany and Hong Kong.
